Everything Will Be All Right
When a problem arises, one that disrupts my normal, ordinary, day to day life, and sometimes even threatens to cost me a lot of money, money that I don’t have or can’t spare because I’m financially challenged at this stage in my karma, when a problem arises like the one that arose this morning, I don’t panic anymore.
I don’t feed it with my insecurities and drama anymore.
I simply do whatever action I can do at the moment the problem hits me, which is what I did this morning, and then I get my sorry little self out of the house and I walk.
Walk walk walk.
And somewhere before, during, or after the walk,
I sit and I meditate.
Not for long.
Just long enough to realize how good it is to be alive and well and able enough to deal with the problem in question. And I relax and drift away jut long enough to really feel — deep down inside my soul — that all is well. Everything will be all right…I can go on being happy.
I had a nice talk with the ducks, by the river, today.
I’ll show you the pictures tomorrow, promise.
Question du Jour:
How do you cope with problems?
Marilyn Robertson says:
Much the same as you … go for a walk, talk to the trees, the rocks, or yes, even the ducks if there are any around. Walking seems to release the frustrating energies so that my brain can function again. It’s my favourite activity.

Hi Marilyn!
Absolutely the most effective tool and what a fun, wonderful tool it is once you choose to walk and notice what’s going on around you. Once you connect not only with Nature, but with the people that cross your path.
With your talent for photography and your writer’s gift, you should write a book about the walks you take, filled with photographs. Hope no one is reading this except you. Do it!
Big hugs and lots of LOVE,
Mudd a.k.a. You-Know-Who
